Overview
Communities for a Better Environment is one of a few environmental justice organizations in California to publicly support the state's cap and trade program and the Low Carbon Fuel Standard--two essential components of the state's global warming emission reduction program (AB 32). This $20,000 grant supplements CBE's existing $100,000 grant, which supported CBE's work on renewable energy policies, to include additional work on defense of broader range of AB 32 policies.
